Chapter 15 – Maybe It Is
Azkedelia's POV
I was so shocked by what Destiny just said I dropped my shot glass and choked on the whiskey in my mouth.
"Why do you think it's Akelianna?" Damon asked looking about as shocked as I did.
"Think about it. They know me, all about me and Stefan, and the symptoms I experienced. The wounds I had were very similar to the ones Katherine gave Akelianna" she explained.
"The ghost was trying to get you to do bad things in order to get you know who back, your words were terrible things actually" she simply nodded in agreement. "Then it can't be Akelianna, she was good" I stated.
"Akelianna had a dark side you didn't know about. She started experimenting with dark magic before she was killed. I tried to get through to her about how dangerous it was, but she died before I got the chance" she replied. I was starting to get angry.
"It's not Akelianna! She's at rest!" I exclaimed.
"Azzie…"
"No! It's not my sister!" my voice was angry and full of agitation.
Destiny and Damon kept quiet as I slammed three more shots down. I could feel the tension building in the room. Destiny had to have looked at Stefan at least half as many times as he looked at her. I wish I would have killed that Elena bitch when I had the chance that first night, and then there would be one less thing in the way of their love.
"I think it's time we go home" I said looking over to Damon.
He looked down at me and agreed. When I looked over to Destiny she did too. We grabbed our jackets and headed outside to the car. Damon put the car in gear and we were off. We arrived at the boarding house and Destiny went straight up to her room. As she passed me I felt an aching pain in my chest causing me to have to bend over and take a few breaths.
"You alright?" Damon asked.
"Yeah just Destiny" I replied and there went another sharp pain. This time I cried a bit.
"Come on" he said as he lifted me up bridal style. "You need rest" he said as he carried me up to his room.
He sat me down on the bed and helped me take my boots off. He then helped me change into some shorts and a tank before tucking me into bed and joining me. I laid back and stared at the ceiling.
"What's on your mind Azzie love?" I smirked at that and looked over to him. He was propped up on his elbow looking down to me.
"About how powerless I am and apparently blind" I sighed. Damon looked at me confused and gave a look for further explanation.
"Destiny might be right; I think it could be Kelli. She was right about the symptoms and the way Kelli died, they're very similar. I saw Kelli play with a dark spell once a few weeks before she died. I called her on it and she said that was the end of it so I left it alone. I didn't notice until now, but she became distant in those last few weeks and started doing things we weren't supposed to be able to do. I should have seen the signs, but all I saw was my smarter, older sister, who did no wrong" I explained. He kept his gaze on me as he played with a strand of my hair.
"And where in all of that did you become powerless?" he quipped.
"Oh well that was me being helpless to do anything for Stefan and Destiny. I wish he would admit how much he still loves her and dump Elena. That would be two things out of the way" I replied.
"But the biggest would be to drink human blood; I don't think that will happen anytime soon"
"I could make Elena disappear" I stated pretending to ignore what Damon just said.
"You could, but I know you and you'd regret it" he retorted.
"Why would I? She is just getting in the way of things. I bet you she gets in the way of me getting my hands on Emily's grimoire" I added sarcastically. Damon just gave me a look and I huffed.
"Fine, you're right" I sighed. "I'll just have to figure some other way to help them out" I turned and got comfortable.
"Ahh yes because it's your job to save everyone" Damon snickered into my ear as he cuddled up to me.
"Damn right, especially my family" I smirked as I closed my eyes. Soon enough drunken tiredness took over and I was out cold.
Destiny's POV
I shot up in bed in a cold sweat with the feeling of someone watching me. I looked around the room and no one was there, but I could feel them watching. I leaned against the headboard and sat in the silence for a few moments trying to contemplate on what to do.
"Alright so you don't want me to know who you are, but you want to help me?" I asked the silence.
Exactly! came an exclaimed whisper.
"I won't do what you told me while I was sick" I replied.
It's the only way to kill two birds with one stone. The whisper retorted. Three birds actually. The whisper giggled.
"How so?"
Stefan will be drinking human blood again and with that pesky Elena out of the way you'll have Stefan to yourself and he'll have to admit his true feelings for you" I could hear her smirk as she snickered.
"I won't harm an innocent, if you truly know me then you already know that" I stated.
If done correctly you won't personally harm anyone besides I know you don't even like the girl. She replied.
I scoffed as I thought of what the ghost had planned for me to do. It involved harming an innocent and that is something I wouldn't do.
"Answer me one thing"
That would be?
"This is Akelianna isn't it?" I heard nothing. "Well? Am I right?" I asked. The room stayed silent for the rest of the night. "I'll take that as a yes" I said as I laid down and got comfortable again.
I closed my eyes, but my mind raced for a while before I fell back asleep, mostly with thoughts of Stefan and our past.
Do you believe the ghost is Akelianna? If so why? Or if you don't who do you think it could be? Will Destiny be able to get through to the ghost? And will the ghost succeed in her mission to get Stefan and Destiny back together? These questions and more will be answered as the story continues! R&R please and thank you!
